Architect visit: Claesson Koivisto Rune

One of our favourite architect firms is Clasesson Koivisto Rune, they are also one of our favourite furniture designers as well and we have a few of their pieces here at mjölk. I wanted to do a post about their Råman house, which was built in 2000. It’s still just as beautiful and classic as it ever was, and also features one of the nicest bedrooms we’ve ever seen.

One day we’ll have a fireplace.

There is also a detached ceramics studio.

Inside the studio.

Another view.

We are in love with the black Fog & Morup pendant light.




What a wonderful and simple bedroom.
Mitzi’s cafe

Today we got up early to have some breakfast before opening the store. We were headed to Grapefruit Moon but because of the crazy Gardiner closure (for the whole summer, no less!) the traffic going cross town was horrendous. Regardless, it was a beautiful day and we wanted to be outside so we went to one of our favorite localish haunts “Mitzi’s” on Sorauren (the College St. location is equally great).

Juli was wearing her new outfit from Robber.


I had my summer hat on.

This brunch is by far the best bang for your buck in Toronto! We always get the “Mitzi’s breakfast”: the best ever sour dough toast, two eggs, bacon, greens (we substitute the potatoes for greens), and a good amount of fruit, X 2 and two cups of coffee costs around 20 bucks.

YUMMERS!
Dinesen flooring

One day we will have Dinesen floors… Wait… Just calculated how much it would cost.
Never mind.
